Meet Tulku Ponse Yigme Tenzin
New CyberSangha Series Coming Soon
CyberSangha will soon launch a new series of live broadcasts and recorded videos featuring Tulku Ponse Yigme Tenzin (Jorge Rene Valles).
Born in Mexico and now in his 20s, as an infant Tulku Ponse was recognized as the reincarnation of the renowned Bön master Lopon Sangye Tenzin Rinpoche. After his enthronement at a young age as a tulku, or reincarnated master, he began studying Tibetan language and culture and regularly traveled from his family’s home in Mexico to Triten Norbutse Monastery in Nepal and Menri Monastery in India. Later, he studied Bön and Buddhist meditation in India and Nepal. He now majors in financial administration in a Mexican university while continuing to develop his knowledge of the Yundrung Bön tradition.
Upon the program’s launch, all will be invited to join Tulku Ponse Yigme Tenzin as he guides a weekly live online meditation in English on YouTube (simultaneous translation available in multiple languages). From his unique perspective as a young practitioner intimately familiar with both Eastern and Western traditions, Tulku Ponse will answer selected questions sent to him by email. His answers will be shared via a series of short CyberSangha videos to be posted regularly on cybersangha.net, the Facebook page of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and the CyberSangha YouTube channel.
More information about the program’s launch and how to participate will be posted in coming weeks on cybersangha.net.
“All my life I’ve had the good fortune of learning and studying with some of the greatest masters of the Yungdrung Bön tradition, and I hope that I can share these teachings and meditation techniques with you.” — Tulku Ponse Yigme Tenzin
